See that train a' comin' round, round the bend,
Carryin' the one that I love.
Her beautiful body is still here on earth,
But her soul has been called up above.

Her beautiful hair was the purest of gold,
Her eyes were blue as the sea,
Her lips were the color of summer's red rose,
And she promised she would always love me.

Body and soul, body and soul,
That's how she loved me, with body and soul.

Tomorrow as the sun is sinkin' low,
The shadows will cover her face.
Her last sun goes down,

As she's laid beneath the ground
And my teardrops are falling like rain.

Body and soul, body and soul,
That's how she loved me, with body and soul.

Body and soul, body and soul,
That's how she loved me, with body and soul.
